The alkyl-groups or the alkoxy-groups may be present in 2-, 3- 0r 4-position, preferably in 4-posi-tion, in cisas well as in transposition. Furthermore, there are mentioned: cyclohexylmethyl, uor B-cyclohexylethyl, cyclohexylpropyls, endo methylene-cyclohexyl (2,2,1-tricycloheptyl), endoethylene-cyclohexyl (2,2,2-tricyclooctyl), endomethylene-cyclohexenyl, endoethylene-cyclohexenyl, endomethylenecyclohexylmethyl, endoethylene-cyclohexylmethyl, endomethylene-cyclohexenylmethyl, or endoethylene-cyclohexenyl-methyl, aor fl-phenyl-cyclopropyl in cis as well as in trans form.

CH CH=CH, -CH=CHCH C(CH )=CH, CH=C(CH or higher members of the same structure which may likewise carry several double linkages. Examples of members whichin addition-contain one of the above-mentioned hetero groups are OCH O-CH CH O--CH --CH CH O-CH(CH Finally this bridge member may be of cyclic structure and represent, for instance, the 1,1-cyclopentylidene radical mentioned: methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl,'

isobutyl or tert. butyl as well as the corresponding alkoxy-groups, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, cyclohexyloxy, cyclopentyloxy, methyl-mercapto, ethyl-mercapto, propyl-mercapto or butyl-mercapto, methyl-sulfinyl, ethyl-sulfinyl, propyl-sulfinyl, butyl-sulfinyl, methylsulfonyl, ethyl-sulfonyl, propyl-sulfonyl, butyl-sulfonyl with straight-chain or branched alkyl radicals, benzyl, phenylethyl, phenylpropyl, acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, acetoxy, propionyloxy, butyryloxy, carbomethoxy, carboethoxy carbopropoxy, mcthylcarbamyl, ethylcarbamyl, dimethylcarbamyl or diethylcarbamyl.

The phenylene radical indicated in the formula by phenylene can preferably be unsubstituted or more or several times substituted by halogen, lower alkyl or lower alkoxy. It may contain the remaining parts of the molecule in ortho-, metaor para-position to one another, the para-position being preferred.

The above-mentioned benzenesulfonyl-ureas can be prepared according to methods generally known for the preparation of compounds of said class.

The following methods may be applied, for instance: (a) Amines of the formula R'NH or, if desired, their salts are reacted with benzenesulfonyl-isocyanates, benzenesulfonyl-carbamic acid esters, benzenesulfonylthiocarbamic acid esters, benzenesulfonyl-carbamic acid halides or benzene sulfonyl-ureas carrying the substituent (b) Benzenesulfonamides or their salts carrying the subare reacted with R-substituted isocyanates, carbamic acid esters, thiocarbamic acid esters, carbamic acid halides or ureas.

(c) Benzenesulfonyl-chlorides carrying the substituent are reacted with R-substituted ureas, isourea-ethers, isothiourea-ethers or parabanic acids and the benzenesulfonyl-isourea-ethers, benzenesulfonyl-isothioureaethers, or benzenesulfonyl-parabanic acids obtained in this way or by another method are hydrolized.

(d) In correspondingly substituted benzenesulfonyl-thioureas the sulfur atom is replaced by an oxygen atom.

(e) correspondingly substituted benzenesulfenyl-ureas or benzenesulfinylureas are oxydized.

(f) In one or several reaction stages the radical is introduced by acylation into benzenesulfonyl-ureas of the formula (g)' In benzenesulfonyl-ureas of the abovementioned formula in which Z represents a hydroxy group or a carboxy group protected by esterification or a hydroxy group protected by etherification or--if X stands for a single chemical linkage and R for Ha carboxy group being in o-position to the carbonimide grouping and protected by phthalimide formation, the carboxy group is set free by hydrolysis or catalytic hydrogenation,

(h) In benzenesulfonyl-ureas of the above-mentioned formula in which X contains one or more ethylenic double linkages, these are hydrogenated and the products are treated with alkaline agents if salt formation is desirable.

According to the nature of the members Z, Z, Z", X and R, the one or the other of the processes mentioned above may in single cases be unsuitable for the preparation of the individual compounds covered by the general formula, or at least measures for protecting active groups may be required. Said cases which are relatively unusual are easily recognized by the expert and it does not cause any difficulties to apply with success another method of synthesis of those described above. Thus, it may be necessary to protect hydroxy-groups mentioned sub Z by esterification or etherification, carboxy-groups present in corresponding position by esterification, or a carboxy-group in ortho-position to the carbonamide group likewise by ring closure to the phthalimide derivative. The conditions are similar if R represents a mercaptoalkyl-group.

The above-mentioned benzenesulfonyl-carbamic acid esters or benzenesulfonyl-thiocarbamic acid esters may contain in the alcohol component a lower alkyl radical or a phenyl radical. The same applies to the R -substituted carbamic acid esters or the corresponding monothiocarbamic acid esters.

As carbamic acid halides, the chlorides are, above all, appropriate.

The benzenesulfonyl-ureas to be used as starting substances for the process may be unsubstituted at the side of the urea molecule opposite to the sulfonyl group or may, preferably, be once or twice substituted by lower alkyl radicals or aryl radicals. The aryl radicals may be linked with one another by a chemical linkage or by means of a bridge member such, for instance, as CH NH, -O or -S. Instead of benzenesulfonyl-ureas substituted in said manner there can likewise be used corresponding N-benzenesulfonyl-N'-acylureas which-in addition-may be alkylated or arylated at the N'-nitrogen atom, and likewise bis-(benzene sulfonyl)-ureas. It is, for instance, possible to treat said his (benzenesulfonyDureas or N benzenesulfonyl N'- acyl-ureas with amines R NH and to heat the salts obtained to elevated temperatures, particularly above 100 C.

It is likewise possible to start from ureas of the formula R NHCONH or from acylated ureas of the formula R -NHCONH-acyl, wherein acyl represents an aliphatic or aromatic acid radical preferably of low molecular weight or the nitro-group, or from phenyl-ureas of the formula R NH-CONHC H or from diphenyl-ureas of the formula in which case the phenyl radicals may be substituted and may be linked with one another directly or by means of a bridge member such as --CH NH, O- or S, or from N,N-disubstituted ureas of the formula R NHCO-NH-R and to react them with benzene-sulfonamides substituted by In the correspondingly substituted benzenesulfonyl-thioureas the sulfur atom can be replaced by an oxygen atom, for example, with the aid of oxides or salts of heavy metals or likewise by the use of oxydizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide, sodium peroxide or nitrous acid.

The thio-ureas can likewise be desulfurized by treatment with phosgene or phosphorus pentachloride. Chloroformic acid amidines or chloroformic acid carbodiimides obtained as intermediate products can be converted into the benzenesulfonyl ureas by an appropriate treatment, for instance by hydrolysis or addition of water.

The use of phthalimide compoundsif Z represents carboxyl-in ortho-position to the carbonamide grouping is, in principle, possible with all types of reaction. The splitting up of the phthalimide radical can be provoked by alkaline agents; generally it occurs, however, already in the course of the reaction or when the reaction products are worked up. If esters or benzyl-ethers are used, a splitting may be realized later on, in order to obtain the free compounds.

In the same way, a hydroXy-group or a carboxy-group covered by Z can be protected and the subsequent splitting of the protective group can be carried out with all types of reactions mentioned above. If Z represents a hydroxy-group, there enter into consideration as protective groups acyl-groups, in particular lower alkanoylgroups and the benzoyl-group as well as hydrocarbon radicals, especially benzyl, which are capable of being split off by hydrolysis or catalytic hydrogenation. If Z represents a carboxy-group, the protection is realized by esterification with alcohols, especially lower aliphatic As part of said formula there enter into consideration:

The benzenesulfonyl-urea derivatives obtained according C1110 CH30*CO to the process of the present invention are valuable medic- 1 aments characterized by a strong and-above all-a long- CH3 CH3 lasting blood sugar lowering action. Their hypoglycemic EH1 action could be determined, for instance, in rabbits by feeding them the products obtained according to the proc- CHaO- ess of the invention in the usual doses of 400 milligrams/ kilogram and determining the blood sugar value accord- 3 1 1 ing to the known method of Hagedorn-Jensen over a prolonged period.

Thus, it was found, for instance, that the N-[4-(B- benzamidoethyl-benzenesulfonyl]-N'-cycloheXyl-urea provokes a maximal lowering of the blood sugar (measured after 6 hours) of 32%. After 24 hours it still amounts to 32%. By administering N-[4-'(B-benzamido-ethy1)-benzenesulfonyl]-N-(4-methylcyclohexyl) -urea the blood sugar level is lowered by 34% as a maximum, after 24 hours the lowering still amounts to 31% and after 48 hours still to 20%. In contradistinction thereto, the N-(4- methyl-benzenesulfonyl)-N-butyl-urea known as antidiabetic for oral administration and used as a medicament over the whole world, in a comparison test given in the abovementioned dose showed a blood sugar lowering amounting to 40% as a maximum, which, however, after 24 hours had fallen to zero. Upon administration of the considerably lower dose of 50 mg./ kg. to rabbits-which dose allows of determining the hypoglycemic action in a more difierentiated manner and comes nearer to the therapeutical dose-it was found that the new N-[4-(B-benzamido ethyl) -benzenesulfonyl]-N-cyclheXyl-urea after 24 hours upon administration showed a lowering of the blood sugar amounting to 17% and after 48 hours a such of 11%, and the new N-[4-(B-benzamido-ethyl)-benzenesulfonyl]-N'-(4-methyl-cycloheXyl)-urea after 24 hours even caused a lowering of 21%, whereas the blood-sugar lowering action of the known N-(4-methyl-benzenesulfonyl)-N-n-butyl-urea given in the same dose after 24 hours was equal to zero.

Furthermore, it was ascertained, for instance, that 50 mg./ kg. of the N-[4-(B-phenoxy-aceta-midoethyl)-benzenesulfonyl]-N'-cyclohexyl-urea provoke in the rabbit a blood sugar lowering of 40% after 6 hours, whereas the blood sugar level is reduced by 30% upon administration of the known N-'(4-methyl-benzenesulfonyl)-N-n-butylurea.

The strong action of the products obtained according to the invention is particularly evident if the dose is reduced. If N- [4- (B-phenoxyacetamidoethyl) -benzenesulfonyl] -N- cycloheXyl-urea or N-[4-(B-phenylacetamidoethyl)-benzenesulfonyl]-N-cycloheXyl-urea is given to rabbits in doses of 1 mg./ kg. a distinct lowering of the blood sugar can still be ascertained, when the above-mentioned N-(4- methyl-benzenesulfonyl)-N'-n-butyl-urea given to the rabbit in a dose of less than 25 milligrams/kilogram is no more active.

When administering the N-[4-(B-3-chloro-4-methylbenzamidoethyl)-benzenesulfonyl]-N'-(4 methyl cycloheXyl)-urea in a dose of 0.2 mg./kg., the N-[4-(B-3,5- dimethoXy-benzamidoethyl)-benzenesulfonyl]-N' cycloheXyl-urea in a dose of 0.3 mg./kg. or the N-[4-(B-3,4- dichloro-benzamidoethyl)-benzenesulfonyl) N cycloheXyl-urea in a dose of 0.3 mg./kg., the N-[4-(B-2-hydroxy-benzamidoethyl)-benzenesulfonyl]-N'-n-butyl-urea in a dose of 2 mg./ kg. or the N- [4-(B-2-hydroXy-benzamidoethyl)-benzenesulfonyl] -N-cyclohexyl-urea in a dose of 0.15 rug/kg. to rabbits a distinct lowering of the blood sugar can still be observed.

The following table shows for a number of compounds forming the object of the present invention the doses in trig/kg. which, upon oral administration to rabbits still provoke a distinctly recognizable lowering of the blood sugar level (threshold dose). For comparison, it is stated that the threshold dose for the known N-(4-methylbenzenesulfonyl)-N-n-butyl-urea amounts to about 25 mg./kg.

The above-described benzenesulfonyl-ureas are preferably destined for the manufacture of orally administerable preparations showing blood sugar lowering action in the treatment of diabetes mellitus and can be applied as such or in the form of their salts or in the presence of substances causing salt formation. For the formation of salts there can be used: alkaline agents, for instance, alkali metal hydroxides, alkaline earth metal hydroxides, alkali metal carbonates, alkaline earth metal carbonates, alkali metal bicarbonates, alkaline earth metal bicarbonates, but likewise organic bases, particularly tertiary nitrogen bases, if the latter are tolerated by the organism.

As pharmaceutical preparations there enter into consideration preferably tablets containing in addition to the products of the invention the usual adjuvants and carriers such as talc, starch, lactose, tragacanth or magnesium stearate.

A preparation containing the above-mentioned benzenesulfonyl-ureas as active substance, for instance, a tablet or a. powder, with or without the above-mentioned additions, is favorably brought into a suitable dosage unit form. The dose chosen should comply with the activity of the benzenesulfonyl-urea used and the desired effect. Favorably, the dosage per unit amounts to about 0.5 to 100 milligrams, preferably to 2-10 milligrams, but considerably higher or lower dosage units can likewise be used which, if desired, are divided or multiplied prior to application.

The temperature was raised to 120-l30, whereupon the reaction set in after a short time, with evolution of methanol. After 30 minutes, the whole was cooled, the sulfonyl urea formed precipitated and was recrystallized twice from methanol. The melting point of N-[4-(benzamidomethyl)-benzenesulfonyl]-N-cyclohexyl-urea was found to be 201-202".
